General Glassware DURAN® Filter Crucible, Gooch Disc Dia. 40mm

One of the most important separation methods in the laboratory environment is filtration, which is used to separate or clean different media. For this working method, filters are required which are selected according to the application with regard to size and porosity. Gooch filter crucibles are filters that are used for solid-liquid separation by means of vacuum. Filter crucibles have a glass sintered bottom which serves as a filter medium and does not require the use of filter paper. Unlike Büchner filter funnels, Gooch filter crucibles are flat bottomed that allows the crucible to sit safely on a bench allowing further working steps such as the drying of the filter residue in the crucible in a vacuum desiccator.
